Einstein, Chomsky, Pappe, and Oppenheimer were all traitors

A large and rapidly growing contingent of (mainly younger, but also embraced by highly-respected older scholars and others) Jews is taking up the call ‘not in our name’. This movement repudiates the genocide, the Settler violence, and the Zionist imperialism attached to it. They recognise the necessity, the humanity and the decency of a just co-existence of the Semite tribes in Semite land.

That the charge of antisemitism is hurled at them demonstrates the ruthless ambition of the Zionist imperialist coterie. For them, Jewish ancestry is only available to Zionists and those who repudiate Zionism are traitors.

Which leaves the rest of us in the ironical position of watching the current Israeli government channelling, to a frightening degree, the very same characteristics, motives and actions as the Nazi government that inflicted the Holocaust upon its people.

In the name of humanity, this must be stopped and remediated.

At this stage, Gaza is a cause that has transcended the Islamic. It has brought countries of the Global South to the forefront as leaders in international fora, bringing more and more Western countries outside the US-British orbit on board, and driving a groundswell of opinion among young people around the world but especially in the United States and Britain. Countries like South Africa, with its extraordinary achievement in pulling together the case for genocide at the International Court of Justice, have shown Muslim states what effective organisation is all about.

Why Gaza is a global cause

The local Health Ministry says at least 64 people were killed and 105 injured in Israeli attacks across Gaza in the past 24 hours. Many victims are still under the rubble and on roads, with civil defense crews not able to reach them, it adds.

It has been decried as “hellishly authoritarian” by critics for proposals such as dismantling the US Department of Education and replacing thousands of non-partisan federal employees with political appointees aligned with Trump’s policies.

Project 2025 was developed by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank headed by key staffers from the previous Trump administration. It has an advisory board of more than 100 conservative groups.

The Heritage Foundation previously created a ‘Mandate for Leadership’ in 2015, and boasts that Trump instituted more than half of its policy recommendations within the first two years of his presidency.

These ranged from the US leaving the Paris Agreement on climate to increased military spending.

Our correspondent reports “decapitated” bodies arrive at Al-Aqsa Hospital after Israel bombs a UN school in Nuseirat. The strike killed “more than 16” people, according to the Government Media Office. The majority of those injured are children.

The “continuous cycle” of mass displacement of civilians in Gaza and people being in “survival mode” and “despair” must stop, the director of the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees, Philippe Lazzarini, has said.

The process of Jewish expansion over Palestinian land has involved maintaining a “system of domination,” says author Nathan Thrall on this week’s Intercepted. In order to constrict “Palestinians into tighter and tighter space” over the decades, Israel has deployed a strict permit system, movement restrictions, walls, fences, segregated roads, and punitive actions such as arrests and detentions, even of children.

“A Day in the Life of Abed Salama” is a 2024 nonfiction Pulitzer Prize winner. Thrall is also the author of “The Only Language They Understand: Forcing Compromise in Israel and Palestine.”

When the smoke clears in Gaza, it will be perceived that the only people not “run over” are the owners and managers of the U.S. military-industrial complex and their political enablers.  They will be counting their money, running for reelection, and planning the next war.  And that will be no accident.

The issue of Israel’s creeping annexation of the West Bank has resurfaced in recent days after a leaked recording of Israel’s finance minister Bezalel Smotrich revealed a “dramatic” plan to impose permanent Israeli control over the West Bank “without the government being accused of annexing it,” as Smotrich was recorded saying.

Israel’s leaked plan for annexing the West Bank explained

Ilan Pappe demonstrates in his new book, has been instrumental in shaping the narrative in the service and maintenance of the Zionist project. Lobbying for Zionism on Both Sides of the Atlantic, as Pappe notes, has a long history. Having founded the state of Israel on terrorism, against the wishes of the native population, the Zionist groups that used violence to disrupt the history of Palestine are now determined to shield the occupation state from the global outrage that its genocide in Gaza has provoked.

New revelations by the Guardian have exposed the extent of Zionist lobbying in the US, revealing a coordinated and well-funded effort by the Israeli government to influence public opinion and political discourse. The goal is to shape American debates on college campuses, in Congress and across social media. Another top priority is suppressing criticism of Israel, which is achieved by lobbying lawmakers to adopt the controversial International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of anti-Jewish racism, and conflate legitimate criticism of Israel with . . . anti-Semitism.
